Patricia and Gerard are great hosts, they were easy to contact and met us on arrival to explain everything. We had a super stay in Ashford Villa. It is perfectly located for Cong village and Ashford Castle. It was very safe for our two young boys with its enclosed back garden. The house is well equipped with absolutely everything we needed, we were welcomed with a beautiful welcome pack which everyone enjoyed. We really enjoyed our time here and intend to return in the near future. We would highly recommend Ashford Villa.

Paddy2017-04-11T00:00:00Z

We had a terrific time at Patricia's place. Her and her husband were extremely friendly and welcoming. The place was very comfortable and clean, and the area surrounding was beautiful. It's located next to a golf course and a castle hotel, perfect for a nice walk. When we arrived Patricia had the fire going and even left us breakfast in the refrigerator for the morning and a box of treats. Such a nice surprise. Definitely one of our best Airbnb experiences, very highly recommended

Lovely house and Marie was very welcoming and friendly. We would recommend this house. Clean, newly refurbished and close to Cong.

Kean2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

Marie was very helpful and we were met at the property as arranged and shown around. The house itself has just been renovated and there are still some small teething problems (which Marie pointed out and she is sorting them) but overall the house was ideal for us and the three children. It was spotlessly clean when we arrived and all the essentials were there including fresh fruit, which was nice. The house is a short walk from the village centre but is also nicely secluded, it's an ideal location. Cong itself is just gorgeous and this is the ideal base to explore it from. Highly recommended and hopefully we will be back at some stage soon. Thanks for everything Marie.

Conor2017-08-17T00:00:00Z

This nice cottage is very well located at walking distance from the lovely Cong village and close to Galway and Connemara. The house which can accommodate 5 to 6 persons has been recently refurbished and is perfectly equipped. The hostess, Marie, is very sympathetic and highly responsive to any request. In summary, we had a wonderful stay at Marie's cottage and I strongly recommend this destination.

James2016-03-20T00:00:00Z

Beautiful location, the house is right beside the village so you can park the car up for the few days and stroll around. 9 adults stayed in Anne's house for a wedding in Ashford lodge, their was loads of space and showers etc for getting ready. The house was better than expected, fresh towels & lovely brown bread greeted us on arrival. Ashford castle is a 10 minute walk. My only regret was not booking another night!!!

Niamh2016-04-17T00:00:00Z

We all had an amazing time in Cong. A wedding with all the family including the grannies is hard to coordinate but we were very lucky to find this beautiful well appointed home in Cong that met all our requirements. Fabulous location and delightful home. Thanks Anne and family for sharing your home with us. We hope to return one day.

Karen2016-09-27T00:00:00Z

This is a beautiful house in a fabled garden in 5 minutes walk from the center of Cong. Which is a beautiful and fable town. The house is cozy and well- equipped ( with some extra equipment that we enjoyed very much! ), the hosts are nice, correct and friendly. We loved the 4 days we could spend there.

Agnes2015-07-16T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely family long weekend away in Cong. The house is well equipped and was comfortable for our group, 8 x adults and 3 x children (under 5). The location is beautiful and you feel like you have your own private piece of Cong. There is a river and beautiful garden on the property and while it was secluded it was very close to the town for socialising and seeing the sights. Anne left lovely brown bread for us and there was a lot of info for things to do in the area. The kids loved the playroom and the kitchen- dining - living area was able to accommodate us all. I would thoroughly recommend the house and Cong for a family break away.

Bobbie2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

My family had a great time and Anne was a brilliant host. The place is even bigger and better than the pictures. Highly recommend!

Sinead2017-05-21T00:00:00Z

We selected Cong as our location for a family get together- 10 people- to celebrate my mum's 80th birthday and to let her have the Quiet Man experience. We could not have picked better accommodation as Anne's house fitted our needs perfectly. Spacious living and sleeping accommodation, all bedrooms en-suite, a separate room equipped with a games consule (and drums) for children and easy walking distance to the lovely town of Cong. Kayaking and fishing equipment which kept our two boys 11 and 13 - and some of the older 'boys'- thoroughly amused. Aside from providing the Quiet Man experience, Cong is also a beautiful town surrounded with fascinating history and beautiful nature. We would thoroughly recommend Anne's house for anybody looking for accommodation in or around this location.

Jim2017-07-08T00:00:00Z

Excellent location a few minutes walk from the village and Ashford Castle. The house is very clean, with a lovely garden and small deck area. We would definitely recommend a stay here!

Donogh2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Wonderful house and location. Cong is the most charming town and is very welcoming. We enjoyed traditional music during several nights of our stay and day trips to Galway and other points of interest were very doable. We especially enjoyed the 2 hour boat trip around the lough and walking around Ashford Castle after hours.

carolyn2017-08-30T00:00:00Z

My family and I had a very enjoyable stay in this beautiful house. It is very spacious with beautiful bright rooms. All seven adults and the baby were comfortably accommodated. One of my daughters, her husband, and baby were the first to arrive and were greeted and let into the house by Sighle's father way before my arrival time. So I was grateful for that! He also quickly provided some repair work and brought a high chair for the baby next day. We met Sighle only on our check-out day when she came by to collect the keys etc. All went very quickly and efficiently and we had a nice chat. There is no internet connection in the house which I had somehow overlooked in the description. It was a bit of an inconvenience since we all heavily relied on our cell phones for communication in the States and other places in Europe. However, it also made for nice quality family time and conversation! There are several spots in Cong where one can log-on. Thanks again for letting us stay in this beautiful house. Great time in a lovely place!

Christa2017-07-01T00:00:00Z

Really nice house in a lovely setting. Lots of space to relax if the weather is bad too. Everything seemed to work well with the tiny exception of the shower heads were a bit wonky in the two showers I used. The listing showed 2 bath rooms but there were actually 3 so that was a bonus!

Gaye2016-09-22T00:00:00Z

I would recommend staying at Sinead's cosy apartment. My family and I stayed only one night at Sinead's apartment, and we wished it were longer as it was perfect for us. It is very clean and the beds were comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need, it is indeed a cosy place. Sinead was also very accommodating about changing the day we stayed, as our flight was delayed. The apartments location is within walking distance to everything you need to see in Cong. It was always a wish of mine to see this little village and it will be a cherished memory. Thank you Sinead. PS My family fell in love with the dog.

Heather2017-01-02T00:00:00Z

The Cosy Loft Apartment was a great place to stay to spend some time in Cong. Sinead was a gracious host and gave us a great recommendation for a place to eat dinner. The apartment was exactly as shown on the listing, and it was very clean and comfortable. We loved that it was within walking distance to all the exciting things going on in Cong. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Emily2016-07-30T00:00:00Z

Excellent stay at Sineads loft apartment with our family. Sinead was very helpful and the apartment was just perfect. Just on the edge of Cong (2 mins walk) and situated by a nice wood. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed for a small family. My 3 year old son loved the trampoline! Highly recommended if staying in Cong or if visiting Mayo in general.

Ursula & Ruaidhri (Rory)2016-04-25T00:00:00Z

Fantastic stay at this cosy little flat. Sinead was amazing helpful before we arrived, even leaving a couple of bits in the fridge, and providing a cot, mat and bouncy chair for our 3 month old son. Very close to the heart of Cong and a beautiful part of the world.

Robert and Susan were great hosts. Despite our late arrival ,Susan shared great information and left us some yummy home baked cookies. We would love to come back and stay here again more than just one night. The home was warm and cozy. It really felt like a home away from home.

Eric2017-03-26T00:00:00Z

Susan was really responsive and cooperative and met us even though we only gave her 20 minutes notice of arrive. The place is lovely, as described and is in the centre of Cong. Susan went through every thing comprehensively and gave us lots of tips for Cong. Very happy with the experience. Thanks Susan!

Marie2016-09-04T00:00:00Z

Snuggled between the borders of County Galway and County Mayo, the picturesque village of Cong will heartily welcome you. Robert and Susan's place is steps away from the Abbey and this lovely village can be walked and explored easily. We were greeted by Robert at their gift shop and given a tour of the house. Fresh scones awaited us on the table, as well as jam and butter. The cottage is cozy, with a fireplace for ambience as well as warmth, and it certainly was spacious enough for us. One evening we watched The Quiet Man and relaxed while listening to the sounds of the rain on the window. Lovely! The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was very easy to prepare meals in. We were able to locate parking easily even though it may look challenging at first glance. There are many things to do in the town itself and an easy drive to many other attractions in the area. Robert had wonderful recommendations for us and we would highly recommend this cottage for fellow travelers!

Donna2017-08-01T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful time in Cong. Susan met us within five minutes from the time we arrived and was very welcoming. The apartment was ideally located to everything in Cong and Susan gave us some wonderful suggestions for places to eat. The apartment was clean and spacious with a little private courtyard area to sit in the evening. It was also an added bonus to be able to wash our clothes while we were here. You won't go wrong staying at Robert & Susans place.

My husband and I loved staying at Martha's river lodge. We did stay in one of the smaller rooms, but that was our own choice because we wanted the last one available with a view of the street and the river (we booked very last minute). We didn't spend much time in the room, so it worked out just fine for us. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. Martha is so sweet and was very welcoming and accommodating. Breakfast was very good and the dining room was nice. We would highly recommend the river lodge and would stay here again if we are ever in Cong.

Sinead is very warm and helpful and we enjoyed meeting her. It is the first season for the house on Air B&B so there were some teething problems. Sinead managed to sort out the WiFi for us after a day or two, and would have got the washing machine sorted too if it hadn't been for the Galway races! The house is clean and there is a pretty bit of garden at the side which you can see in the first photo (NB the cottage in the photo is the one next door). Sinead is planning on getting outdoor furniture for next summer which will be a great asset as the dining area is an internal room with no direct external light. Cong is a fantastic place for a holiday and a week isn't enough time to do it justice!

The people who ran this hostel were some of the nicest people ive met in Ireland, which is saying something. Hostel was nice and clean, and I had the best breakfast I've had in a month. The only downside is how far the hostel is from Cong. Some might call it "just a good stretch of the legs," but it was a little inconvenient coming and going, especially after dark. One of the people who works there was nice enough to walk me home from town that night though, so they were really very accommodating. If I ever return to Cong I would stay there again, although hopefully with a rental car.

Beautiful design and modern luxury are uniquely embodied in this four bedroom, four reception room, detached home in Cong, Co. Mayo. Plenty of natural light flows throughout the house's open, airy layout.
Wake up and feel nestled by the woods and trees surrounding the property. Depending on the season, Connemara ponies will graze the other side of your garden fence. 'Luskin's' is a five minute stroll to the centre of the famous village of Cong and a stones throw away from Ashford castle, the famous lakeside hotel.

Cong is a unique place where the past is always present.

Cong is realy a beautiful place, the house was big and great. Perfect

Sheila's place is perfectly situated about 300m from the centre of Cong, Pat Cohan's pub/restaurant. The house was huge and yet cosy and perfectly set up for our stay, with towels, linen, washer dryer, cosy beds with blackout blinds, didn't need a thing. Our car broke down as we rolled in to town, but Sheila did everything she could to help, above and beyond the call of duty. Cong is such a beautiful village, kept like a postcard with picturesque river walks, spots to watch the salmon jumping out of the water and of course, the set locations of the old John Ford film The Quiet Man. Ashford castle is next door and we went for a short boat ride out to Inchaghoill with Corrib cruises, which you must also do! All in all, a great place to stay if you like nature, fishing, golfing, history or "olde worlde" Ireland.

A lovely, extremely cosy house in a beautiful setting. Our group was made un of 2 families with 3 children in all (7-11 years) and we all loved the house. The rooms were spacious with plenty of light, the living room and the dining room have comfy armchairs to chill out. It was so relaxing that we never managed to get an early start on the day. The only slightly negative aspect I can think of is that you can hear occasional cars coming down the road in one of the four bedrooms (the one faclng the road). It did not bother us and the other rooms were silent. Easy walking distance to Cong's pubs and shops (less than 5 min.). Fantastic walks in the neighbouring woods, great cruise with Corrib Cruises on the lake with marvellous commentary and music. We definitely will be back. Sheila was a great host although we didn't get to meet her in person, she always answered immediately, sent us all sorts of recommendations and even left a bowl of fruit. A big thank you!

We were two guests who shared the cottage which had plenty of good space for us. We used the upstairs and downstairs bedrooms which were both comfortable and warm. The cottage has great character with plenty of comfy places to sit and all windows of course offer sight of the beautiful nature around. There is an open field to the side of the cottage I liked being in, and floral attractions surround the cottage. There are great walks close by and Cong is about 1.5 km away. I'd love to bicycle in the area one day. We really enjoyed our memorable stay at the cottage!

The cottage is a great place to stay. We wanted a quiet place to enjoy the outsides, this house was perfect. A warm welcome with fruit and wine upon arrival. We especially enjoyed the old lp collection:)

Aimée's cottage is located in Cong which is a cute little town about 30 minutes drive from Galway. We've had a great time and were happy that we could explore Cong which we would probably have never done without staying at the little cottage. The cottage is in walking distance (maybe 30 minutes) from the town center with lots of pubs and a very nice café. The cottage itself was old but cosy and had a lot of nice vintage furniture. The house also has a well equipped kitchen and Aimèe even left some fruits for us to eat! Even though the shower in the upper floor is an electric shower it was better than most other modern showers that we encountered in Ireland. Communication with Aimée was easy and quick even though we didn't meet her in person! She also gave us good advice on what to do in and around Cong. If you'd like to experience a quiet, cosy stay near a cute little town, surrounded by sheep and beautiful landscapes, then stay at Aimée's cottage!

Katrin2017-08-06T00:00:00Z

This place is absolutely cute and lovely! It's cosily decorated and makes you feel just at home! The location is very good - close to the little town Cong - and a good starting base for visiting the area. We didn't get a chance to meet Aimèe, but were welcomed by two very kind people who showed us around.

Katrien2017-08-29T00:00:00Z

Great stay in quite a spacious cottage! Very helpful and friendly host! Will recommend to friends.

Just back after 3nights in Croinilaun holiday apartment Richard and family could not be more helpful and welcomed get apartment fab everything in it so private and quite location great

Maureen 2016-09-18T00:00:00Z

Great, private space which is within walking distance to the village of Cong. It was our second stay at Richards and we would recommend it to anyone visiting Cong and the surrounding area.

Pauline2017-04-28T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely time in Cong. The location is fantastic- less than 5 minutes walk into the town which has plenty of restaurants and pubs. The town is beautiful in itself but we also took some road trips to the surrounding Connemara countryside. Richard and his family are great hosts, really welcoming. The accommodation is perfect, next to Richards house yet completely private. I will definitely come back.

Elaine2016-06-13T00:00:00Z

Great location, and beautiful apartment. Richard was very welcoming and kind.

Nora2016-10-31T00:00:00Z

A very nice stay!

Jia2017-03-19T00:00:00Z

Perfect secluded sanctuary for a break in Co Mayo. Convenient for Galway, Connemara, Ashford Castle, Knock airport, the Wild Atlantic Way. Two minutes from Cong walking, it's clean, warm, modern, well appointed and milk for a cup of tea was even supplied on arrival which was very much appreciated. Thoroughly recommended

Justin2017-04-17T00:00:00Z

Richard, his family (Including Molly the collie) were very accommodating throughout our stay. Apartment is very nice. Perfect place to stay for a wedding weekend. 2 min walk to Cong village, bars, restaurants and Spar newsagents. 2 min drive from Ashford castle and lodge.

Trevor2016-09-26T00:00:00Z

Very warm welcome from Richard and Lynda. Their home is very nice, well equipped, well located and mostly quiet. They are very available and what a pleasure to communicate with them. A remake!

Apartment in beautiful surroundings with all amenities for short or long term booking, b & b also available on request, excellent location to explore scenic Cong with Ashford Castle, Connemara and Irelands West Coast. Apartment has separate entrance.

We are based very close to the very well known village of Cong (movie: The Quiet Man), Ashford Castle and the two scenic Lakes "Corrib" and "Mask", beautiful walks in the woods and along the shores. A Paradise for people who love nature and peace.
We are at the entrance to beautiful and unique Connemara, about 30 miles from the sea (Leenane ), beautiful beaches, the Connemara National Park, Kylemore Abbey and we are ideal located to go for a day trip through Connemara.

It's very rural here, only a few houses along the road, typical Irish country life

Every thing was perfect during our stay in Sibylle's house. Perfect apartment, clean and comfortable in a quiet zone. In a beautiful area, we visit the village and have a walk into the forest. Great location for visiting Connemara.

Sophie2015-08-20T00:00:00Z

We arrived to a lovely welcome, discovering that Sibylle had made us homemade shortbread. The neighborhood is lovely and quiet, with not many houses around, and the nearby village Cong has a fantastic deli with local produce (try the lamb!) The walk through the woods to Cong is a must, it is full of trees covered in moss and ferns. The flat is very light and there is lots of space for the two of us. The kitchen is modern and the house is clean and warm. Sibylle had lots to recommend for our visit, including the best times to see live music in local pubs and has lots of information on local activities e.g. walks and the Aran Islands boat trips. We really recommend staying overnight on the Aran Islands as you can see a lot more than if you just go for the day.

Charlotte2016-05-27T00:00:00Z

The apartment is very nice and quiet. It is comfortable and well equipped. Sybille was a really good host and welcomed us very warmly, providing lots of useful tips for our stay. Dogs barking wasn't a problem at all, as Sybille was there and just moved them inside the few time they started barking.

domenico2016-08-19T00:00:00Z

Very friendly, caring, helpful hostess who spares no effort to offer guests the all-inclusive package. In the same light, the accommodation was: very clean, well furnished and very well equipped. Could not be better! We had a very nice time in Cong. Thanks a lot for this.

Tabea2015-05-11T00:00:00Z

Everything in the description was accurate and the flat is well appointed. Sybille was very accomodating -she wasn't able to be present when we arrived but she made arrangements for us to. have access to the key The place was clean and tidy and the beds comfortable. I would recommend Sybille's place.

Lise2015-05-15T00:00:00Z

Nice apartment, fully equipped kitchen and bathroom, we were 4 adults and one baby for 3 nights and there was plenty of room for all. Sibylle made us feel welcome, nice touch with chocolates and shortbread on arrival. The apartment is the top floor of Sibylle's cottage, there is ample parking and it is on a very quiet road. Sibylle keeps a lot of dogs but they are kept separate from the house and were generally quiet aside from a few feeding frenzies. The apartment is about a mile from the lovely village of Cong, which is walkable but along a fairly main road. You are also about 10 mins drive from Ballinrobe with take-aways, ATMs etc; and right on the doorstep of beautiful Connemara with loughs, mountains and beaches aplenty.

Stuart2015-08-24T00:00:00Z

Sybille was most accomodating and its housing consistent with the description, great location, I recommend!

Marie-Agathe2015-09-13T00:00:00Z

Nice location, a short distance from Cong. As the house is set back from the road, halfway behind an old stone shed, it is easy to miss coming from Cong. Coming from the opposite direction it was easier to find. it.

Mary, you've been such a great host - thank you so much for being so considerate, compassionate and accommodating. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Cornamona. Indeed, you really went out of your way to make our stay comfortable and cosy. On top of your warm reception, the landscape really is spectacular - it's the ideal place for taking long reflective country strolls... We had exactly the relaxed, chilled holiday we were looking for. The best part of Mary's house is the garden - there is a gorgeous outdoor seating area hidden away. The beds are also very comfortble. I highly recommend this spot, both for location, and for Mary's excellent hosting. Thank you Mary!! :)

Nice, traditional style place. Everything there you need. Good location.

Great location near Ashford Castle & Lodge and Cong Very cosy place, everyone was happy with it. Host, Jonny, was very welcoming - a lovely open fire was set for our arrival and some excellent home made brown bread was left out for us. A brilliant option for events in Ashford.

Eibhlin Michael2017-05-07T00:00:00Z

We were warmly welcomed by the mother of Johnny, who had prepared a fire and what to eat in the evening and the next morning. We regret not having met him to thank him. However, the quality / price is a bit high because the house is not suitable for aging and 9.

Nadia2016-10-28T00:00:00Z

Great location 5 star

Joseph 2017-04-18T00:00:00Z

We were attending a wedding in Ashford Lodge so this was an ideal place to stay. The house was great and Jonny was very helpful and answered any questions we had. The weather was amazing so he lent us his bbq which topped the perfect weekend. Will definitely be making a return visit. Great place and host.

Mary2017-04-18T00:00:00Z

A wonderful little cottage in a beautiful little town. We only spent one night in Cong but wish we had more time! Suzanne and Robert we excellent hosts and were a wealth of information on the town. We even learned all about the rules of hurling (might be my new favorite sport). The apartment was spacious and comfortable. We especially appreciated the little jug of milk for our tea! We would highly recommend this spot and hope to visit again soon.

Tim2016-07-12T00:00:00Z

The apartment is ideally located in the centre of Cong and is a beautifully presented flat. Susan was very welcoming and we had a fantastic time. We were only disappointed we were not staying longer.

Stuart2016-09-21T00:00:00Z

We ended up arriving almost 2 hours later than we planned and Robert waited for us out front. They had home made cookies ready for us and maps and brochures of the area. Also Susan's shop was just next door so they were accessible for questions and always friendly.

Meela2015-08-17T00:00:00Z

Suzan very kindly welcomed us. The apartment was consistent with the description, quiet and well located. We had a lovely stay at Cong.

Christian2015-08-02T00:00:00Z

Susan is a fantastic host, she gave us lots of useful information about what to do in the region and the apartment was great. Quiet, clean, beautifully furnished and fresh cookies waiting for us ^^ Thanks a million

Florence2016-10-27T00:00:00Z

Charming apartment in lovely Cong. Comfortable beds and plush linens. Nice location to walk around Cong and close to Ashford Castle

Carolyn2015-10-21T00:00:00Z

The apartment is lovely, and comfortable and very convenient. Robert and Susan were friendly and made my stay very enjoyable. Also the village is adorable and the food in the hungry monk downstairs was un-be-lievable. Really would recommend this place highly. Thanks.
